Medical Sciences 

The Oxford Handbook of Medical Sciences, available in print or as an e-book, has been written by biomedical scientists and clinicians to explain the fundamental scientific principles that underpin clinical medicine and to provide students with a firm grounding in the basic sciences. Deliberately divided into systems-based sections that mirror modern medical teaching strategies, this handbook begins with a clear, easily digestible account of basic cell physiology and biochemistry. It then moves on to an investigation of the traditional piers of medicine (anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology, and pharmacology) integrated in the context of each of the major systems relevant to the human body.

Where do I start?

I am after some really Basic Science Information.

Where and how do I find good articles?

How do I get access to Ebooks?

I would love to find some Images!

I desperately need help with referencing in either the Vancouver or Harvard styles.
